AD dear heart, utterly divine, if the dreams you have are as beautiful as you're writing then they are glorious.
Utterly fabulous
Really excellent work

Luckily there is hope in dreams coming true,
for if there wasn't hope why would we dream?

Sven, an interesting piece. Is it any wonder that we have spent decades studying the impact and influence of dreams? I love the questions, actually. Thanks for this.

Wow, do you dream standing up?
I watched the news last night of the horrors the elderly are having to deal with because grown children have control of their money. Now thats what I dreamed about. I sure hope it don't come true for me!!!

Very creative, and strangely enough (or not) I was just yesterday contemplating this topic. Sometimes you wonder which is real, and if maybe the dreams are real and the rest of this is just a big nightmare. You think so? Perfect poem for my mood of late..Love it.

Well there's some deep thoughts. Considering the strangeness of mine lately, I'm actually hoping there's some invisible wires crossed somewhere and they're someone elses completely.........
Really nice set up with this. I like that. Have never tried it myself.

thanks to everyone that's replied

you know, this seems to be a real topic these days. . . I've been running into all sorts of people who've been asking me not only about what I dream, but about what their dreams mean. . . hmmmmmmmmmmmm. . .

we've having a discussion about this down in the Member's Lounge. . . come and join us!!!
